Tenax Therapeutics' (TENX) CEO John Kelley on Q4 2015 Results-Earnings Call Transcript.
Answer Wiki. I honestly don't think there's a plus to a debit card. It's not as secure as credit (if you get theft ed say goodbye to your money), there's no perks, and there could be potential fees (overdrafting, etc). Other then getting money from ATMs, I can't think of a reason to use them. The minus for credit is the ease of debt.
They are not part of the double-entry system, but may be expanded by the computer as a debit to one account and a credit to another account. For example, a cash receipts transaction may cause a debit (increase) to a cash account and a credit (decrease) to an accounts receivable account.
